Description: 'Love for Love' is an acute and comical examination of gender identity, dissecting humours and affectations with the wit, energy and complexity of a farce of manners. The plot of this socially satiric Restoration comedy turns upon the devices used by a woman to find, in a corrupt society, true love in marriage. 'Love for Love' was written by 1694 and first performed in 1695.
